One hundred years ago, the universe's greatest library was sealed off, leaving only one warning: "Count the shadows". But now, the shadows are moving again. The Doctor and Donna must uncover the terrible truth behind the Nodes and the horrifying Data Ghost, to find the library's secret, and on the way they try to avoid the vashta nerada, pirahna's of the air, shadows that melt the flesh.

Rumours

  • The shadows may be the same or a similar sort of being as the Shadow which killed Elton Pope's mother in DW: Love and Monsters; the Shadows may eat the flesh of whomever is shaded by one.
  • It is rumoured this story will feature Cybermen (possibly Mondasian ones) However, this is unlikely as they are known to be appearing in the Christmas special.
  • This plot may be similar to BFA: The Genocide Machine.
  • Possibly set on the Lost Moon of Poosh
  • It is rumoured (through an unreliable source) that this story sets the tone for the finale by Donna finding and reading her history in a book in the library. It tells her that she 'died' at the hands of the Empress of the Racnoss... (in the 2006 Christmas special)
  • If that rumour is true and Donna's death is foretold it may be similar to The Satan Pit when the Beast predicted Rose's 'death'.
  • On YouTube, pictures of Donna are shown in a playground walking with a hooded black figure - whether this is in this episode or Forest of the Dead, is uncertain. It is confirmed as it shows Donna in the playground in the Mid-Series Trailer but it may be in either Silence in the Library or Forest of the Dead or even the Doctor-lite episode
  • The young girl dreams up the library. This is uncertain, but from the trailer on the website of Silence in the Library, it looks like she has control of the library by closing her eyes and imagining. However, the later line "The real world is a lie, and your nightmares are real", spoken by Doctor Moon, suggests all may not be as it seems.
  • As seen on the preview on the doctor who website, the doctor finds out his fate when he finds a book with a cover exactly like the TARDIS, it's called "The TARDIS book"
